Monsoon clouds - Andaman islands

There is something about the water, the air and the clouds of the Andaman islands... In the monsoons in particular, the colours, the intensity and the drama is unmatchable. As the monsoon continues to play truant this year, here are a few pics from the Andamans from the past.

Mahatma Gandhi Marine National Park, Wandoor, South Andaman. We were on the beach on Jollybuoy Island and could see the clouds building up and blowing in. I could manage a few pictures before we had to ourselves run for shelter... (July 2003)
